OPPO A96 Features

1. Design and Build Quality
   The OPPO A96 features a sleek and modern design, available in Starry Black and Sunset Blue. It has a plastic back and frame but remains lightweight and comfortable to hold. The IPX4 splash resistance ensures some protection from light water exposure, which is useful for daily usage.
    

2. Display Quality
   The 6.59-inch IPS LCD display with a 1080 x 2412 pixels resolution is sharp and vibrant. The 90Hz refresh rate enhances the smoothness of scrolling and gameplay, making the user experience much more fluid. While it’s not AMOLED, the display is still bright and delivers good contrast for media consumption.
    

3. Performance and Software
   Powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 680, the OPPO A96 handles everyday tasks with ease. The 8GB of RAM ensures smooth multitasking, while the 128GB of storage provides ample space for apps, photos, and videos. Running on Android 11 with ColorOS 11.1, the software is customizable and intuitive, though some users may find the absence of Android 12 out of the box a slight drawback.
    

4. Camera Performance
   The 50MP main camera is capable of taking sharp and detailed photos in good lighting. The 2MP depth sensor is useful for portrait shots, adding a nice background blur effect. However, the camera performance in low-light situations is average at best. The 16MP front camera delivers decent selfies, though it struggles a bit in challenging lighting conditions.
    

5. Battery Life and Charging
   With its 5000mAh battery, the OPPO A96 offers impressive battery life, easily lasting a full day of moderate use. The 33W SuperVOOC fast charging is a major plus, allowing you to recharge the phone quickly, giving you up to 50% battery in just 26 minutes.
    

6. Audio Quality
   The stereo speakers on the OPPO A96 provide decent audio quality for media consumption. The inclusion of a 3.5mm headphone jack is a welcome feature for those who still prefer wired headphones, offering flexibility in audio options.
